Parting Shot: Christopher Nolan's Batman Trilogy In 3 Minutes

Email This

Added together, Christopher Nolan's entire Batman trilogy totals roughly 457 minutes, or a little over 7.5 hours. That might be seen as a big commitment for the superhero and/or cinema fan on the go. So while we highly suggest you make time in your schedule for the totality of the director's Dark Knight story (assuming you haven't already), there is now a quicker way, as Screen Rant has put together a three minute video of clips from each of Nolan's Batman films, summarizing the story about as well as one can in a little more than 90 seconds. At roughly a minute a film, it's certainly an economical endeavor.

You can check out the full video below.

Loved it. The first one was excellent, the second was phenomenal and the third completed the story in a satisfying way. Seems Nolan ended up following some famous footsteps as I recall that the dynamic of the Star Wars trilogy was very similar.

Rises was easily my fav of the three, and have watched em all again since. Great to see Beuce Wayne get an ending to his story and his life back (which was robbed of him by from crime ) for once :)

Nolan is a let down and this a shitty Batman. Sorry Nolanites I know he gave you all movie cred but his version of Batman sucks compared to O'Neil, Miller, Moore et all. I am glad Bale quit 'cause he was a ***** Batman.

My 'Nolanites' I take it you mean ''most critics''. People who like Nolan movies (Bat or otherwise) aren't exactly the Illuminati, dude.

Same as below: watching this made me realise how much I disliked the end part of Rises. The rest of Rises was good enough, but the very end? Nope.

I loved it, and I can't believe the movie's been out on Blu-Ray/DVD for ages and we've still not had a roundtable review! Come on Chris, how can the world's foremost batmanologist neglect a Bat-movie to review pish like Tank Girl!?! ;-)

Watching this still makes me sad that Rises was a letdown compared to the first two. Rises was a cross of Year One, Knightfall, No Mans Land, The Demon trilogy and it still somehow managed to be a disappointment, in my opinion

I think it tried to do too much. There was a lot of great stuff in there, but it didn't quite mesh. It seems like Nolan started working on the 'last' movie and realized there were a lot of toys he'd left in the box that he really wanted to play with. The plot of Rises could have supported two films and I think it would have let the plot breathe a little if it had been split up that way. Part one sets up his return, his relationships with Catwoman and "Miranda", and Bane's plan and ends with Bruce getting put in the pit. Part two would give us more of the No Man's Land story and maybe fleshed out Blake into a character we'd actually care about. And by spreading out the climax, maybe Bane could have gotten the sendoff he deserved.
